pool balls

My wife got us a pool table. (Yes, she rocks, why do you ask?)

I know jack shit about pool and we are both learning to play. I'd like to give her a nice set of balls as a gift. (Nope. I couldn't type that with a straight face).

Can you recommend a good set of balls?

I'm more concerned with how they play than how they look, but if there are good quality, cool-looking balls out there, I'd look at them.

I need to stop typing now and giggle childishly.

Just go from one bar to another, take one ball from each. Or Google "Pool/billiards Supplies."

pool, billiards supplies - Google Search

Don't be afraid of Google. You can do it!

do you need snooker balls or regular balls?

Pool. I did some on line research and bought what I hope will be good ones. I was hoping for some input from any pool players here. There's no way I'm good enough to play snooker. Talk to me after a couple years of practice.
